Checkout API
With Checkout API, the entire checkout process will take place within the online store environment, without the need to redirect to an external page. In addition to allowing greater control in the customization and integration process, the checkout offers a complete structure for processing payments with the main means available on the market.
To integrate the Checkout API, follow the steps below.
- In the Administrative Panel of your store on Tiendanube, go to My apps.
- Find the Mercado Pago plugin in the list of applications and click on Actions > Configure.
- In the list of payment methods, locate the Mercado Pago plugin and click on Edit configuration.
- Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on More settings on the Mercado Pago website.
- On the checkout settings screen, navigate to the area "Checkout API" and enable the desired payment option, which can be:
Credit and/or debit cards:
- Credit. Select the card brands you want to enable in your store and also indicate the maximum number of installments permitted for installment purchases. To configure an installment plan without increases, see the section on Discounts, installments, and interest.
- Debit. Select the card brands you want to enable in your store.
Cash. Select other types of payment methods you want to enable in your store, such as OXXO, Paycash, and others. Also indicate the number of days until the ticket expires (including Saturday and Sunday).
- Finally, click on Save changes.
Done! The Checkout API is ready to accept payments for your store.
